To reimpose the limit, try using the 'post_limits' filter, or filter 'pre_option_posts_per_rss' and return -1'posts_per_archive_page' => 10,:(int) - number of posts to show per page:on archive pages only. Over-rides showposts and posts_per_page on pages where is_archive() or is_search() would be true

'nopaging' => false,:(bool) - show all posts or use pagination. Default value is 'false', use paging.

'paged' => get_query_var('page'),(int) - number of page. Show the posts that would normally show up just on page X when usinthe "Older Entries" link.
NOTE: You should set get_query_var( 'page' ); if you want your query to work with pagination. Since WordPress 3.0.2, you dget_query_var( 'page' ) instead of get_query_var( 'paged' ). The pagination parameter 'paged' for WP_Query() remains the same.
Offset Parameter'offset' => 3, //(int) - number of post to displace or pass over.
Order & Orderby Parameters:Sort retrieved posts.'order' => 'DESC', //(string) - Designates the ascending or descending order of the 'orderby' parameter. Defaultto 'DESC'.
//Possible Values:'ASC' - ascending order from lowest to highest values (1, 2, 3; a, b, c).
'DESC' - descending order from highest to lowest values (3, 2, 1; c, b, a).'orderby' => 'date', : (string) - Sort retrieved posts by parameter. Defaults to 'date'.Possible Values:

'menu_order' – Order by Page Order. Used most often for Pages (Order field in the EdiPage Attributes box) and for Attachments (the integer fields in the Insert / Upload MediGallery dialog), but could be used for any post type with distinct ‘menu_order’ values (theall default to 0).

‘meta_value' – Note that a ‘meta_key=keyname’ must also be present in the query. Note alsthat the sorting will be alphabetical which is fine for strings (i.e. words), but can bunexpected for numbers (e.g. 1, 3, 34, 4, 56, 6, etc, rather than 1, 3, 4, 6, 34, 56 as yomight naturally expect).

'meta_value_num' – Order by numeric meta value (available with Version 2.8). Also notthat a ‘meta_key=keyname’ must also be present in the query. This value allows for numericasorting as noted above in ‘meta_value’.

'no_found_rows' => false, :

(bool) Default is false. WordPress uses SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS in most queries in order timplement pagination. Even when you don’t need pagination at all. By Setting this parameter to true you are telling wordPress not tcount the total rows and reducing load on the DB. Pagination will NOT WORK when this parameter is set to true.

Serendipity

Jonathan Trager and Sara Thomas met while shopping for gloves in New York. Though buying for their respective lovers, the magic was right and a night of Christmas shopping turned into romance. Jon wanted to explore things further but Sara wasn’t sure their love was meant to be. They decided to test fate by splitting up and seeing if destiny brought them back together… Many years later, having lost each other that night, both are engaged to be married. Still, neither can shake the need to give fate one last chance to reunite them.

Jon enlists the help of his best man to track down the girl he can’t forget starting at the store where they met. Sara asks her new age musician fiance for a break before the wedding and, with her best friend in tow, flies from California to New York hoping destiny will bring her soul-mate back. Near-misses and classic Shakespearean confusion bring the two close to meeting a number of times but fate will have the final word on whether it was meant to be.

A couple reunite years after the night they first met, fell in love, and separated, convinced that one day they’d end up together.

Enabling Support for Post Thumbnails

Themes have to declare their support for post images before the interface for assigning these images will appear on the Edit Post and Edit Page screens. They do this by putting the following in their functions.php file:

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails' );

Note: To enable Post Thumbnails only for specific post types see add_theme_support()

Setting a Post Thumbnail

If your theme was successful in adding support for Post Thumbnails the “Featured Image” metabox will be visible on the on the Edit Post and Edit Page screens. If it isn’t, make sure “Featured Image” is enabled in the screen options on the top right.

After clicking the “Set featured image” link follow the same steps as inserting images in Posts and Pages. But instead of the “Insert into Post” button use the “Use as featured image” link next to it, to set the Post Thumbnail.
